How To! is a STEAM curriculum binder and companion website for middle school educators. The project curates four arts-integrated lessons across core subjects, redesigned, organized, and ready to use. Built for grades 7 and 8, every lesson is structured so that students learn and engage in the subject through the creative process.
Project Goals
Address the lack of organized, accessible STEAM resources for middle school educators
Curate and redesign existing lessons into a single, ready-to-use physical resource
Use arts integration as the method of delivery for core subject learning
Reduce prep time while encouraging student engagement
Create a resource flexible enough to work across different learning environments
Build a companion website that extends the binder digitally and allows the collection to grow over time
Project Research
My research surfaced a large collection of STEAM lesson plans shared by instructors nationwide, thorough and information-dense, built to serve instructors well. But that same density can overwhelm the students on the other end of the lesson. That gap became the core design question: how could this content stay informative for instructors while becoming more engaging for students?
